    Was going through the Vista error log when I noticed entries for June and Sept. 18th. I bought the computer new in late October. The entries correspond to when the Acer software was installed, but wouldn't they do that using something equivalent to a recovery disk? Seems hard to believe they'd go through each machine loading in the software individually. Looked over the box and it has a sticker on it saying "inspected by loss prevention". Getting suspicious.
